For over 30 years, Sachi Braden, President and Principal Broker of Sachi Hawaii, has been guiding clients through the purchase and sale of luxury real estate in Hawaii. With deep expertise spanning primary residences, vacation homes, condominiums, and investment properties, Sachi has built a firm where like-minded professionals gather to deliver exceptional, comprehensive service to clients from across the globe.
Sachi Hawaii’s success is rooted in its unmatched ability to connect sellers with the right buyers — wherever in the world they may be. Whether you’re selling a penthouse in Kakaako or an oceanfront estate in Diamond Head, our team brings the strategic marketing knowledge, international network, and local insight to position your property in front of the buyers who matter most.
We are also recognized leaders in strategic acquisitions and procurement. Our longstanding relationships with developers, architects, and engineers give us the expertise to assist clients with even the most nuanced transactions — including vacant land, unique investment properties, and other listings that require a highly targeted approach to find the right buyer.
International Exposure
At the heart of Sachi Hawaii is a deeply personal commitment to international connection. Sachi Braden was born in Osaka, Japan, and brings a culturally sensitive, globally informed perspective to every aspect of her business. That worldview is woven into the fabric of the firm she has built — one where cultural fluency is not an afterthought, but a genuine competitive advantage.
Many of Sachi Hawaii’s agents are multilingual, with languages represented across our team including English, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. This breadth of communication allows us to connect with buyers from around the globe on a level that goes beyond transaction — building trust, clarity, and lasting relationships across cultural lines.
Over more than 30 years in luxury real estate, Sachi has cultivated a faithful following of affluent international clients who continue to seek her guidance on Hawaii real estate. Through extensive travel and an ever-growing global network, she has earned a reputation as one of Hawaii’s foremost authorities on international buyer outreach — a reputation that benefits every client who lists with Sachi Hawaii.
A frequent seminar presenter throughout Japan, Sachi and her team regularly travel abroad to engage directly with prospective buyers interested in making Hawaii their home. These seminars cover the full spectrum of what that transition entails — from creative financing and logistics to lifestyle considerations like dining, shopping, and community. More than a marketing tool, these events have become a vehicle for building the kind of deep, enduring relationships that define the Sachi Hawaii experience.

Marketing Tools
Multiple Listing Service (MLS): The Honolulu Multiple Listing Service provides a searchable database for Hawaii real estate agents. Maximizing the use of this tool, our listings include professional photographs and detailed property information. Having your MLS listing completed properly increases the exposure of your listing. Since many online real estate websites pull information from Honolulu’s MLS database, it’s important that your listing is set up correct from the beginning. Featuring over 5,000 homes available for search, the first stop for local real estate agents assisting their buyers is an MLS-enabled search site.
Selling a home is as much about relationships as it is about reach. Over 23 years in business, Sachi Hawaii has cultivated an exceptional network of buyers, sellers, fellow agents, community members, and global partners — and every marketing strategy we employ is designed to activate that network on your behalf.
A Multi-Channel Approach: We believe the right buyer can come from anywhere, which is why we never rely on a single channel. Our marketing strategy spans print, digital, social media, email, and in-person engagement — each reinforcing the others to create consistent, broad-reaching exposure for your property.
Print & Visual Marketing: High-quality print materials remain a powerful way to communicate the value of a home. From beautifully designed property flyers to targeted mailers and magazine placements, we ensure your listing makes a lasting impression in the hands of the right audience — in English, Japanese, and Chinese.
Web & Digital Marketing: Today’s buyers begin their search online, and we meet them there. Through our websites, strategic placements across leading real estate platforms, and targeted digital campaigns, your property reaches a wide audience of local, national, and international buyers actively searching in Hawaii.
Email & Social Media: Our carefully maintained email list — built entirely on genuine relationships over more than two decades — connects your listing directly with previous clients, engaged buyers, and top-producing agents. We complement this with a thoughtful social media presence that tells the story of your home and invites the right buyers into the conversation.
In-Person Networking & Community Involvement: Some of our most valuable connections happen face to face. Sachi Hawaii is deeply embedded in the communities we serve — through industry networking, open house events, and a long-standing commitment to local volunteering and community organizations. This presence keeps us top of mind with the people who matter most, and opens doors that digital marketing alone simply cannot.
The Sachi Network: Ultimately, what sets our marketing apart isn’t any single tool — it’s the trust and reputation we’ve built over 23 years. Our curated network isn’t purchased or manufactured; it has grown organically through genuine relationships, consistent service, and a deep love for Hawaii. When you list with Sachi Hawaii, you gain access to that network on day one.
WebsitesAlongside Sachi Hawaii’s highly-visited English and Japanese websites, Sachi advertises regularly throughout the internet’s Who’s Who of Luxury real estate websites, local affluent media websites, and more, ensuring your property is exposed to the appropriate buyer market.
Photography and Videography
First impressions are everything in real estate — and in today’s market, that first impression almost always happens on a screen. Exceptional photography and videography aren’t just a nice addition to a listing; they are the foundation of it. At Sachi Hawaii, we treat visual storytelling as one of the most important investments we make on your behalf.
Unlike many brokerages that outsource this work, our in-house photography and videography capabilities give us full creative control over how your home is presented to the world. Our skilled professionals use professional-grade equipment to produce ultra-wide angle photography that captures the true scale and flow of a space, as well as HD video recorded at 60 frames per second — delivering smooth, cinematic footage that brings your property to life in a way that static images simply cannot.
The result is a visual presentation that is stunning, expansive, and authentically representative of your home — not just its square footage, but its feeling. The light, the views, the details that make it unique. We believe every home has a story worth telling beautifully, and our photography and videography ensure that story is told with quality and care from the very first click.
These visuals then become the backbone of everything else we do — powering your MLS listing, print materials, digital campaigns, social media, and more — ensuring a consistent, compelling impression of your property across every channel and every audience.
